Excellent flotation testwork results from the Blue Spec
Shear Gold-Antimony Project Metallurgical Study
Northwest Resources Limited (ASX: NWR, "Northwest" or "the
Company") is pleased to report that first phase flotation
tests on samples from the Blue Spec and Gold Spec deposits
have produced excellent recoveries of 95% for gold and 98-99%
for antimony into concentrate. The flotation tests are part
of a comprehensive Metallurgical Study currently under
way.
Northwest's vision for the Blue Spec Shear Gold-Antimony
Project is to bring the Blue Spec and Gold Spec deposits into
production in 2013 as a high-grade narrow vein underground
mining operation producing a gold enriched antimony
concentrate for direct sale and to expand the project through
the discovery of additional high-grade deposits along the
shear zone.
Highlights of the first phase testwork include:
